“Progress is a double edged sword”
From the film Hidden Figures.
Meaning congratulations on building the self service check out till but you’ve also just put people out of a job.
In a similar vein we can lump the Manhattan project.
But it’s funny how the costs of progress are rarely considered as we race to improve.
It’s very much a one sided coin.
With every evolution, there is extinction and with every innovation, there is destruction.
I suppose we’re just following Mother Nature’s cruel example with the survival of the fittest.
